in new zealand it always needs to be licenced/rego paid to be on the road

at 40 years it becomes "classic". this means a slight change to "continuous licencing" in that it takes a little longer for it to be come deregistered if you forget to put it on hold

Sand and primer ain't got time for that

time for a  "delivery van" version stripped out seats/glass

werent the old escort/corolla "van" versions some kind of tax break back in the day 

And vauxhall chevannes 

They came with a bit of paper where the back seats should be saying for tax reasons no seats, here's the number to the parts department should you need for some reason

I think minitrucks could make a comeback. Rangersnget chicken taxed out and light weight single cab pick ups slip through 

Can we get a Yamaha Zuma?

Silver solder if you are tour du frogs. THINK ABOUT THE GRAMS 

If rego is still live you can just get a replacement plate 

Tick the box where it says handing 0 plates in, and reason - lost

Was about 20bucks last time I got one

just thought about pouring a separate pad outside the shed for serious underbody cleaning, mount the hoist on it, lift car, clean car, put hoist away and not demo the hoist leaving it outside. That may have sealed the deal

This was my plan too

The English, having never seen a blue sky before, come up with that colour and call it grey

Post war Austerity battleship grey. I thought mine was that, but evidently it was Gascoyne Grey

Ahh the drudgery
